Ego Likeness - Wayfaring Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger
in that bright world to which I go

I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep

I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I'll soon be free from every trial
My body asleep in the churchyard
I'll drop the cross of self-denial
and enter on my great reward

I'm going there to see my savior
To sing his praise forever more
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going home

[SteampunkPyrate]

I love this song done by Ego Likeness most beautiful version I've heard yet.

[ImpaledDream]

@SteampunkPyrate I have to agree with you on that... Her voice is just so beautifully haunting...

[VeneficaDelirium]

This gave me chills.

makes me think of a post apocalyptic world and walking through a destroyed city, while this song is heard somewhere in the distance
